Transdichotomous Results in Computational Geometry, II: Offline Search

We reexamine fundamental problems from computational geometry in the word RAM model, where input coordinates are integers that fit in a machine word. We develop a new algorithm for offline point location, a two-dimensional analog of sorting where one needs to order points with respect to segments. This result implies, for example, that the convex hull of n points in three dimensions can be cons...

Transdichotomous Results in Computational Geometry, I: Point Location in Sublogarithmic Time

Given a planar subdivision whose coordinates are integers bounded by U ≤ 2, we present a linear-space data structure that can answer point location queries in O(min{lgn/ lg lg n,√lgU/ lg lgU}) time on the unit-cost RAM with word size w. This is the first result to beat the standard Θ(lgn) bound for infinite precision models. As a consequence, we obtain the first o(n lgn) (randomized) algorithms...

Voronoi Diagrams for Convex Polygon-Offset Distance Functions

In this paper we develop the concept of a convex polygon-offset distance function. Using offset as a notion of distance, we show how to compute the corresponding nearestand furthest-site Voronoi diagrams of point sites in the plane. We provide nearoptimal deterministic O(n(log n + log m) + m)-time algorithms, where n is the number of points and m is the complexity of the underlying polygon, for...

Incremental Voronoi diagrams

We study the amortized number of combinatorial changes (edge insertions and removals) needed to update the graph structure of the Voronoi diagram VD(S) (and several variants thereof) of a set S of n sites in the plane as sites are added to the set. To that effect, we define a general update operation for planar graphs that can be used to model the incremental construction of several variants of...

Voronoi Diagrams for a Moderate-Sized Point-Set in a Simple Polygon

Given a set of sites in a simple polygon, a geodesic Voronoi diagram partitions the polygon into regions based on distances to sites under the geodesic metric. We present algorithms for computing the geodesic nearest-point, higher-order and farthest-point Voronoi diagrams of m point sites in a simple n-gon, which improve the best known ones form ≤ n/polylogn. Moreover, the algorithms for the ne...
